How It Looked, Told by   Writer;
How It Felt, at Described by One
Who Had Been Through
It All.
Soon we were near the battle. In
the east, across the vast level coun-
try, a faint gray light appeared. The
noble alamo trees, towering thickly
In mussy lines along the ditches to the
west, burst into showers of bird-songs. |
It was getting warm, continued John
Reed, in the Metropolitan, and there
came the tranquil smell of earth and
grass and growing corn—a calm sum-
mer dawn Into this the noise of bat-1
tie broke like something insane. The
hysterical clatter of rifle Are, that
seemed to carry a continuous under-
tone of screaming—although when
you listened tor it, it was gone; the
nervous, deadly stab—stab—stab of
the machine guns, like some gigantic
woodpecker; the cannon booming like
great bells, and the whistle of their
shells; boom—pi-i-i-e-e-a-uuu! And
that most terrible of all sounds of
war, shrapnel exploding; CraBh—
whee-e-eaaa!
The shooting never ceased, but it
seemed to be subdued to its subordi-
nate place In a fantastic and disor-
dered world. Up the track in the hot
morning light staggered a river ot
wounded men, shattered, bleeding
bound up iir rotting and bloody band
ages, inconceivably weary. They ^
passed us, and one even fell and lay
motionless near by in tho dust—and
we didn't care. Soldiers with theii
cartridges gone wandered aimlessly
out of the chaparral, dragging theii
rifles, and plunged into the brush
again on the other side of the rail
road, black with powder, streaked
with sweat, their eyes vacantly on the
ground. The thin subtle dust rose in
lazy clouds at every footstep, and
hung there, parching throat and eyes.
A little company of horsemen jogged
out of the thicket and drew up on the ,
track, looking toward town. One man |
got down from the saddle and squatted j
beside us.
"It was terrible," he said suddenly ]
"Carramba! We went in there last
night on foot They were inBide the
water tank, with holes cut in the iron
for rifles. We had to walk up and
poke our guns through the holes, and
we killed them all—a death trap! And
then the corral! They had two sets
of loopholes, one for the men kneeling
down and the other for the men stand-
ing up.Three thousand rurales in there
—and they had five machine guns to
sweep the road. And the roundhouse
with three rows of trenches outside
and subterranean passages so they
could crawl under and shoot us in
the back. . . • Our bombs wouldn't
work, Vnd what could we do with
rifles? Madre de Dios! But we were
so quick we took them by surprise.
We captured the roundhouse and the
water tank. And then this morning
thousands came — thousands rein
forcemeats from Torreon—and their
artillery—and they drove us back
again. They walked up to the watei
tank and poked their rifles through
the holes and killed all of us the
sons of devils!"
Wo could see the place as he spoke
and hear the hellish roar and shriek,
and yet no one moved, and there
wasn't a sign of the shooting—not a
puff of smoke, except wfv n a shrap-
nel shell burst yelling down in tha
first row of trees a mile ahead and
I vomited a tuff of white, 'the crack-
j ling tip of rifle fire and the staccato
I machine guns and even the hammer-
I lng cannon didn't reveal themselves at
| all. The first dusty plain, the trees
and chimneys of Gomez, and the stony
hill, lay quietly in the heat. From the
alamos oif the right came the careless
eong of birds. One had the impres-
sion that his senses sai re lying. It
was an Incredible dream, though
which the grotesque procession ot
wounded filtered like ghosts in the

MARION'S LEAP FOR LIFE.
On* of the Thrilling Feate of tho F -
moui "Swamp Fox."
General Marlon was a native of
South Carolina, and the theater of his
military exploits was the const region
of that state lie was slender and not
ver." tall, and he rode w hen In service
au extremely swift footed and powe>
ful horse. When in fair pursuit noth
lug could escape and when In lllgl
nothing could overtake him Once he
was almost surrounded liy a party of |
British dragoons and had to take ref
uge in a cornfield The Held, which lay
several feet lower than the adjoining ]
land, had formerly been part of the |
marsh. General Marion entered It at
the upper side; the dragoons who were
In chase of him leaped the fence also,
and were only a short distance behind
him His only possible way of escape
was to leap the feuce at the lower side.
To drain the Held of Its supertluous
water a trench had been cut round
that part of the beld four feet wide and
four feet deep The mud and clay
removed In cutting the ditch made a
bank on Its Inner side, and on the top
of the bank was a fence. In all. the
top of the fence was nearly eight feet
above the level of the Held, and the
ditch, four feet wide, ran parallel with
it on the further side The dragoons
knew the nature of this obstacle, and
believed that it was impossible lor
their enemy to pass It Accordingly,
they pushed forward with loud shoittj,
of exultation, culling out to lilin to sur-
render or perish by the sword
Marion, however, spurred his horse
to the charge. The noble milium, as If
conscious Unit tils muster's life was in
danger, approached the barrier In Ills
finest style and. with a bound that was
almost supernatural, cleared the fence
and ditch completely and recovered
himself without loss or time on ilie

Wireless Telephones.
Several German coal mines are
equipped with wireless telephone sys-
tems, and a Yorkshire, England, mine
has recently been similarly equipped
Each instrument is connected by twu
wires, either with water pipes or iron
ruils, or with a piece of metal buried
in the ground. In the Yorkshire mine,
the instruments are both fixed and
portable; the two fixed instruments
are situated, one in the transformer
house near the pit bottom, and the
other ovc r half a mile away. It i3 pos
sible to talk between the two stations
as easily as if the telephones were con-
nected by wire. The portable instru-
ments, which weigh about 20 pounds
apiece, are carried by the miners to
the points where active work is going
on. By means of them the miners can
communicate with the fixed stations
from any part of the mine. Moreover,
they will enable men overtaken by dis-
aster to summon help from other parts
3f the mine and to direct the rescuers.
